When using a switch statement, if a case doesn't contain a break, it will cause a behavior known as ______.
- exception
- fall-through
- overflow
- recursion
In C++, when a case within a switch statement doesn't contain a break statement, it leads to fall-through behavior. This means that execution will continue from the matched case statement to the subsequent case(s) until a break is encountered or the switch block ends. It's a powerful feature for handling multiple cases with the same code, but it should be used intentionally.
